[QUOTE="H3Alpha, post: 111408, member: 12955"] Not trying to start anything here, but this is the type of response that gets under my skin. There is nothing wrong with either, but to claim that those that prefer the Spark over the MM are lying or trying to make money is BS, and trying to scare anyone about the Spark is counterproductive at best. They both have their pros & cons. MM has a better flight time and a better camera, although that camera is hamstrung by the lack of settings available, and the MM takes 3 hours to charge the battery while the Spark only takes about 1 hour. There are also reports of signal loss and pixelated video with the MM (no different than the Spark), and of course there is the very legitimate concern about the build quality of the lighter MM combined with the lack of Obstacle Avoidance. The Spark is more robust, has more camera settings, includes Obstacle Avoidance, and is just a great, proven, all-around flyer; and quite honestly I've never needed more than 12-13 minutes in the air at a time anyway. I've never had a flyaway (nearly 2 years of use) or any other issue that wasn't caused by myself, and even a few crashes resulted in no damage. As for range; anyone who is fixated on range with a WiFi drone is pushing their luck and without a doubt breaking the law about keeping the aircraft in VLOS anyway, so it's kind of a stupid argument to make, IMHO.
